In the two and a half week push, students donated 2-thousand and 48-hours to sandbagging. That means they earned 1,636 dollars.

Mayor Walaker says he's so appreciative of the help students donated; he says it re-affirms his faith in area youth.

31 organizations received money in the Bucks for Bags campaign. In all, it cost the city 77-hundred dollars, much less than leaders expected. They say that goes to show how many volunteers helped, just to lend a hand.
